Move files from bamboo working directory to Network directory in Powershell

[Madhu]

Hi Team,

Can you please help me to move files from bamboo working directory to network directory in PowerShell

[Khushboo Gupta]

Hello @Madhu 

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

To move files from a Bamboo working directory to a network directory using PowerShell, you can use the Move-Item cmdlet.

The working directory is where Bamboo temporarily places the checked-out files it's building. By default, this directory is located at <bamboo-home-dir>/local-working-dir, where <bamboo-home-dir> is the Bamboo home directory.

The checked-out files for each job are stored in a sub-directory relative to the configured working directory:

<bamboo-home-dir>/local-working-dir/<job-key>

Incase if you want to change the location of Bamboo working directory, you can refer to a KB:  https://confluence.atlassian.com/bamboo/specifying-bamboo-s-working-directory-289277246.html 

Hope it helps!

Hello @Madhu ,

The errors you're encountering, specifically "The user name or password is incorrect," suggest an issue with network authentication. When you're trying to access a network share (like \\xxxxx.corp.choosehmc.com\Public\twf\xxxxx\Test in your case), your script needs to have the correct permissions to access that location.

• Ensure that the user account under which the Bamboo agent (or the PowerShell script) is running has the necessary permissions to access the network share.

If the direct Move-Item or Copy-Item still faces permission issues even after mapping the drive, consider using other tools or cmdlets that might handle credentials differently, such as `robocopy` for copying files, which you can call from PowerShell. Below is the example:

robocopy "D:\Bamboo_New\xml-data\build-dir\PROBOTS-RPASIT-JOB1" "\\xxxxx.corp.choosehmc.com\Public\twf\xxxxx\Test" *.log /Z /COPYALL /R:5 /W:5

 Hope it helps!
